Isaiah 49:23-25

Contemporary English Version

²³ The kings and queens
    of those nations
where they were raised
    will come and bow down.
They will take care of you
just like a slave
    taking care of a child.
Then you will know
    that I am the Lord.
You won't be disappointed
    if you trust me.”

²⁴ Is it possible to rescue victims
from someone strong
    and cruel?^[a]
25 But the Lord has promised
    to fight on our side
and to rescue our children
from those strong
    and violent enemies.
